Beautiful back porch overlooking the water. Excellent setup for groups. Well equipped kitchen. Living room was perfect gathering spot to watch a game or a movie. Our only issue was flying in, we did not pack bath soap or shampoo as most VRBOs in the past have had these amenities so plan ahead for your first night’s shower. If you are visiting Willis, we would recommend this beautiful home and it’s convenient location.

Our family loved our trip to Willis and this house was perfect for us. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook breakfast, lunch, and dinner for 4 days. The lakefront was perfect for morning coffees or an evening game of corn hole. Highly recommend this property.

Just a fabulous stay all around. The location of The Blue Heron was spectacular, located directly on the lake. Your back yard is the lake and it was so very beautiful. The home itself was immaculately clean and well stocked with any items one would want for cooking as well as ample bedding for any situation you would need. Air conditioning worked great as well as Wi Fi , washer and dryer. The parking is generous and the neighborhood is safe and friendly. Everyone was so friendly in Texas. We will definitely be back if possible. We stay in a lot of vacation homes and this ranks right up there with the best.
